    Jundo, you mentioned that you may have missed the Mt Everest climb and the Olympics but in a few years you might qualify for the senior Olympics :lol: Great talk. Thanks.

                Great

                I saw (or non-saw) a total solar eclipse in 1991 (I was 16) It was incredible, we traveled a bit outside of Mexico City to appreciate it in the country, when it went total, suddenly all animals fell silent (cows, hens, sheep), and the crickets began to make their music ... there were just a few minutes but it is something I will never forget, even the rooster crowed when the eclipse ended ... he just did his job, but I'm sure that he thought "that day and night ... mmhh so short"

                _/_
                Thank you for your practice

                  Jundo,

                  Thank you for this teaching. I'll have to work a bit on that ready to go at any moment part since I still cling to this life sometimes. But I shall have time to learn, one way or the other.

                    I do too, of course! White knuckle flier here, sure that every pimple is a terminal sickness. Clinging not clinging.

                    Another "not an either/or" proposition.

                      Jundo and Dosho,

                      I agree ... I too cling to this life sometimes. Funny how we can have what seems like moments of clarity (none clinging), but then BAM ... back to reality!

                      Gassho,

                          Did you all see the video of that 80 yr old lady who slipped out of her harnes at the beginning of her bucket list skyjump? What a rush that must have been http://bit.ly/Jwm27B
                          Gratefully, they landed safely; just a bit jarred. She certainly is a festy old bird. What's next? She's going to try race car driving :roll: :lol:

                            One time there was an annular eclipse here in Toronto. It was about twenty years ago. I was sitting on my lunch break from an uninspiring factory job, in the paved back lot. The lot was empty except for a big old tree in the middle. When the eclipse formed a perfect ring, and the world was a silvery half-light. Hundreds of little gaps in the tree's crown acted like camera-obscura apertures, projecting hundreds of perfect little rings of light on the pavement in a big circle. It was a moment of pure magic in a very un-magical place.



                            Gassho, kojip.
                            How beautiful and how lucky you were to see it!! Gassho, Grace.
